Childish behaviour by managers, most are managers not because of capability but based on number of years in organisation and favouritism. Best part is everyone knows everything and when it comes to execution no one knows what to do and then blame game starts. Leadership has conflicting relationships with global counterparts, hence, organisation benefits are always sidelined over personal benefits. Every discussion starts with, don’t suggest anything, if the suggestion don’t go well, we would be blamed. Suggest something and one’ll get horrible opposition. People who are with the organisation since long time, they have opinion for everything even though the skill level is 1/5 or may be 0/5. However, they know everything and the typical way of forcing their views by humiliation, so that, no one dare to speak. New members who have super on-ground experience, are treated like they have zero experience and knowledge. Most people are full of EGO. Horrible experience.

You have to get a manager who wants to be a manager. You need them to fight for you, elevate you, highlight your accomplishments to senior management otherwise you get lost in the shuffle. They don't encourage movement to other depts as much as other companies, and it can literally take years to get a promotion. The unspoken rule is you do the job for a year and then get the promotion. Also, be vocal and open with others about equity/stock/shares. I found out it was very unfairly distributed on my old team with some people in management lying about it without even being asked directly.
